Tom Brady talks about his affection for New England and its fans and how much he appreciates their support despite playing for another team.
Tom Brady will play in his 10th Super Bowl when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers take on the Kansas City Chiefs this Sunday night. At 43 years old, the ex-New England Patriots quarterback is showing no signs of slowing down any time soon.
Looking back on what the world was like in 2000, when Brady began his NFL career, gives some perspective of what the six-time Super Bowl champion has been able to accomplish. A tweet from Sporting News on Wednesday did just that, comparing a photo of Brady in NCAA Football 99 to a screenshot of him in Madden 21.
It's a wild comparison that shows how far video game graphics have come since Brady's Michigan days. But Brady responded to the tweet with an even better comparison that brought back his infamous courtroom sketch from 2015.

Well played, Tom.
The sketch, of course, is from the legal proceedings during the Deflategate saga. That Brady is using the photo as entertainment six years later as he prepares for yet another Super Bowl appearance is truly remarkable.
Super Bowl LV is set to kick off at 6:30 p.m. ET on Sunday.
